Jodi Stolove's Biography

Jodi Stolove has been dancing since she was a child and has taught dance and fitness for the past thirty years.  A Cum Laude graduate of the University of Michigan, her teaching skills have been enriched by her MS in Counseling Psychology.

The Chair Dancing® concept was born, when as a result of a fractured ankle, Ms. Stolove taught her dance and aerobic classes from a chair.   Creativity born of necessity, resulted in her developing unique seated fitness programs combining the pleasure of exercise, dance and music.

Chair Dancing® provides convenient and effective fitness routines done while comfortably seated.  An alternative to high impact aerobics and gym workouts.  Chair Dancing® improves muscle tone, flexibility and cardiovascular endurance.  These medically sound programs are a new fitness option for active people or those whose physical condition, restricted mobility or age limit their participation in conventional forms of exercise.

Prominent health care facilities, including Kaiser Permanente Medical Centers, Eisenhower Medical Center, Scripps Clinic and the Mayo Clinic, offer this fitness alternative.   The Chair Dancing® videos received a "Best Buy" award by Consumer Digest.

Chair Dancing® has been featured nationally on Today on NBC, CBS This Morning, The Howie Mandel Show, The Home Shopping Network and on News programs around the country.  Ms. Stolove's creation has been acclaimed in publications including The Los Angeles Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, The Chicago Tribune, The Miami Herald, The Seattle Times, The San Francisco Chronicle, The Union Tribune Newspapers; Good Housekeeping, Redbook, Mature Outlook, Prevention, Vim and Vigor, Weight Watchers and Parade Magazines.
